Quitting Retail for Software Development Starter Pack

Quitting my shitty retail job to become a software developer in six months starter pack Multiple monitors for browsing reddit & watching netflix Overly priced headphones Feigned interest in electronic music codecademy False sense of accomplishment from tutorials 10 of these a day This is CS50. "I studied computer science at Harvard" Six months later "Well, I tried"

A collage mocks the stereotypical six-month career-change plan from retail worker to software developer: multiple monitors, expensive headphones, electronic music, Codecademy tutorials, Red Bull, and CS50. After six months, the aspiring developer gives up, making the final "Well, I tried" punchline an ironic reaction to overconfidence and unrealistic expectations.
